Description
Since I got the AMS 2 I wanted to be able to dry my reusable silica in the dryer as well.
I'm lazy and don't want to dump it all out onto a pans to contaminate and dry in my microwave or oven and then have to worry about spilling when reloading into the containers.
Spool holds 7 containers.
I used brass nut inserts melted into the holes to connect the two sides together with 3 m3x8mm screws. There are 6 holes but it is stable enough with just 3. The holes by themselves are too big without the m3 brass inserts.
I used these inserts - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D7M3LJDL?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 - ones that are 5mm wide
This was made to fit these spool containers - which the 75mm ones fit the Bambu lab spools nicely.
Use PETG, ASA or ABS! PLA will likely warp in a dryer. (For both this spool and your silica containers)
